egypt 2004


This year it was my Grandmothers 85th Birthday. As per the tradition the whole family went on a trip overseas, this time to Egypt.

It was my first time to Egypt so it was a different experience. I can recommend that you take a read of the Travel Journal by clicking here!

Canada 2004

canada 2004


2004 was the year I started working for Captaris. One of the first things I did was to visit our office in Calgary to learn about our workflow product.

My visit coincided with the Calgary Stampede, so lots of cowboys in town, indians and rodeos. I also too a bus ride up through the Canadian rockies through Banff, Lake Louise and up to the Columbian Ice Fields.

Baking Ciabata

21. July 2013 07:42 by Rene Pallesen | 0 Comments

baking ciabata


A couple of weeks ago I tried to bake Ciabata bread.

It is a long process that takes about 24 hours (first you have to make this yeast and flour sponge which you then later use for the end result).

I substituted normal flour for wholemeal. This was the end result.



The taste was ok, but it was too dry for my liking...so will have to try again one day.

the lightbulb


Light bulbs are really rare now as you can't buy them in the shops any longer.

We still have one in the cupboard so I decided to have a bit of fun with it one evening...

vivid sydney 2013


Vivid Sydney was on again this year and in my opinion better than the previous years.

Because of the kids it was hard to find the time to explore, but I did manage to head in there one evening to get some photos from the classic angles.

Lucas 9 months

13. June 2013 09:48 by Rene Pallesen | 0 Comments

lucas 9 months


Lucas is now 9 month old and the other day we went to the park to do some Autumn photos with him.

The photo of the day was definitely this one of Kim and Lucas having a moment together.



It was hard because he wanted to crawl around and play and because it was the middle of the day the light was pretty harsh.



We also tried to take some at one of the small bridges in the park but they were shooting a commercial shoot there and Lucas was more interested in trying to get into the water than posing.



And when we tried a family photo he didn't want to sit still.

aiden insect bite


The other day was in the park with his daycare group to play at the playground.

While he was there he was bitten by some unknown insect and the morning after his whole face was swollen.



Fortunately he was happy enough and it didn't require any visits to a doctor.

    Aiden playing with water

    3. December 2012 11:19 by Rene Pallesen | 0 Comments

    aiden playing with water


    Needless to say that our lives currently revolve around looking after Lucas and Aiden.

    This Saturday I took Aiden swimming in the morning and I must say that he is getting more and more confident in the water. We reached another milestone with him being happy to just swim around (in circles mostly) wearing his floaties without holding onto me.

    In the afternoon it was really hot...36 degrees in the shade, so we decided to let him have some more waterfun at home in the inflatable pool.

    aiden playing with playdough


    This weekend we bought some playdough for Aiden to play with.

    Initially he wasn't sure what to do with it, but after a while with a bit of guidance he started getting a bit more creative.

    It is now the first of december and the Christmas shopping has started in the shopping centres.

    The other day the mall has a big sale and with that sale they has different characters walk the floor...in this case a Teddy with a girlie Santa.

    Aiden was very excited but a lille scared of the big teddy bear.

    lucas two and a half months


    Last week Kim asked me to bring the camera an take some photos of Lucas on the bed.




    He is now two and an half months old and is now able to smile and get excited when he sees you and when you talk to him.







    He is still keeping mummy up at night although we think he is getting a bit better on that front.

    An Oldie, but a goodie

    an oldie but a goodie


    This photo was actually taken more than 6 months ago, but going through some old photos I found it too good not to post.

    I was setting up for a pregnancy shoot (then Kim was 4 months due) and Aiden was trying to assist me with the setup. He happened to sit down it the perfect spot and give me a pose that tells so much about his character at that time...sucking his fingers and everything.




    ...and by pure coincidence it happened that the photo was perfectly lit.

    Old Photo - Aiden/Daddy looks the same?

    old photo aiden daddy looks the same


    I found this old photo of myself that my dad took of me when I was about 3 years old (I think).




    Looking at Aiden today there is a strong resemblance in the facial features.



    The photo was badly damaged and requires a fair bit of restoration, but at least I now have a digital copy of the photo.

    lucas 2 month photos


    It has now been two months since Lucas was born and the other night we did another session taking some two month photos...this time of myself and Lucas.







    He has now grown a lot bigger and is a lot more alert to his surroundings. He is still not a very good sleeper although I think (Kim doesn't) he is improving a bit now.

    Kim is pretty worn out having to wake up at night to feed him and I can't help much as I have work to look after as well as Aiden.
